Description:Record-sized funds. Record fundraising. Record deals. Firms going public. Congressional scrutiny. Yes, the past few years have been unlike any in private equity's history. But now as the spotlight pulls away from the sector, bigger questions are being asked. Will, for instance, those large deals pay off? Will limited partners see a significant return from investing in the mega funds? How much difficulty will firms have investing their sizable funds, especially with debt more costly and limited? And perhaps more improtantly how will the private equity industry look going forward? Will limited partners pull back or show a strong inclination for smaller buyout funds or venture capital or perhaps a new sector, like infrastructure? Will the U.S. private equity firms soon be overshadowed by European and Asian firms as well as Sovereign Wealth vehicles? And will the exit environment pick up to the point that the industry generates the type of returns expected from it? The 15th Annual Private Equity Analyst Conference, the industry's premiere gathering, will help shed some needed light on those queries and provide a new view as to whether the industry is headed into a new era or simply returning to a more normal environment. You'll hear from leading limited partners and general partners as they give their views on the industry broadly, what to make of the 2005-2007 period and where it is heading. You'll also hear the insight you need on fundraising and dealmaking within a range of sectors, including buyout, venture capital, mezzanine, distressed and infrastructure. Simply said, an event that cannot afford to be missed.
